Celebrating 30 Years Over 3,690 Miles. Saturday, August 7, 2010. How could I dedicate New York State to anyone else. But my New York City girls? There are two movies in which I will readily admit to crying. Steel Magnolias. When I was 9 years old and Bambi. Sometime before that. And now I will far less readily add Sex and the City: The Movie. When I was 28. In 2008, Sex and the City: The Movie. Even reviews by male critics were giving the movie its share of kudos:. Sure, the SATC lives are not exactly th...

Celebrating 30 Years Over 3,690 Miles. Monday, June 21, 2010. Day 1: Astoria, OR, to St. Helens, OR. Yesterday, we rode 30 miles round trip from our hotel to the beach to dip our rear wheels in the frigid waters of the Pacific Ocean. We pedaled in dreary weather, but the combined energy of all the riders was like a pseudo-sunshine. My backside made a cameo in Helen's account of today. Is Mark's version. As for mine:. I took a photo for me. And another in honor of Ellen's "Quest for World Domination".

Fifty days ago, there were 50 people whose existence was irrelevant to my life. Now I can't imagine not knowing them. I was timidly pedaling out of Astoria on a cool, foggy morning. Trying to keep the 3,6...

When you're cycling in torrential downpours, it requires a little more effort to remember that you chose to take this tour.

Sent me an email to clear up the confusion:. Wisconsin. I "diditfer" my Fabulous Five. Mark's Ride Ac...
